Fingers crossed you have everything you need, remember having a car on a ramp in Ascot on a Saturday, then at 11:30 removing the flywheel and finding the rear seal had gone, queue a rushed drive to GSF at Heathrow to get one before they shut for the weekend.

Thanks all. Most of it is sorted now but still need to do rocker gasket and oil.

What a long day thou. The gearbox was a nightmare getting back on but after a few words went in all ok.
